Just like leftovers from the fridge, sometimes I have to use photos from days gone by. On days like this when I’m running low on inspiration, I have to dig in the archives to show you something interesting.
These are pictures from dinner a couple weekends ago, amid all the hubbub [...]
Nectarines are one of my top five favorite fruits, and I don’t take those rankings lightly. But this year, it seems I’ve developed an allergy and I can’t eat them raw anymore. Hives, blotches, fat lips, the works.

At their Beacon Street location, you can find the most beautifully crafted cakes and pastries. This place is heaven to me! They also serve their own freshly [...]
Flambierbrenner. I think the German word sounds so much cooler than the English version: Kitchen Torch.
I picked the Rösle model because it has high ratings and doesn’t look frightening.
I snagged this from Amazon for the competition, to torch the marshmallows. It was the perfect excuse to buy a new [...]
Appetite blown, pores greased, and spirits drained.
That was me on Sunday evening, and it took a solid 48 hours to fully recover. My appetite has resumed but my lust for cooking is shot. Dinners this week have suffered greatly.
